Mid-Year Freak Out Book Tag

Or well, you know way past mid-year, ha! Hello my fellow friends, I hope you are all having a lovely labour day weekend, I know mine is going swell, too bad it’s almost over.

  1. OMG! I loved The Rosie Project (even though I have yet to read The Rosie Effect)! And I haven’t read The Start of You and Me by Emery Lord but it sounds pretty interesting from what I’ve been hearing… πŸ˜‰ Loved reading this post, btw!

    1. The Rosie Project was so good, I started off not liking it at all, but it really turned around and it was beautiful. I have The Rosie Effect just waiting on my shelf for me to read haha! You should definitely read the Start of You and Me, it was a very cute read. Thank you! & thanks again for the tag! πŸ™‚

  2. It’s funny we’re both determined to read a Jojo Moyes books before the end of the year! What surprised you/delighted you about The Rosie Project? I’ve heard great reviews from people who don’t usually read that genre, so that appeal is intriguing me… πŸ™‚
